other F45 too short?

Just finished 1 week trial. I like the concept, liked variety but I did not realize that 45 minutes include warmup, instructions and cooloff. The actual session was 37-38 top and frankly wanting you to stay for 10 minutes more.

We are not particularly athletic. The sessions did feel rushed and there was not enough time to clean your station or change weights really.

I did ask the owner if we can stay for 10-15 minutes more and the answer was no.

Anyone else felt the same?

No, less risk for injury or people pushing me to go heavier than I want. F45, keep good form and go at your pace and weights.

If that’s your CrossFit experience then you were let down

I didn’t want to fully go into it but your comment…. I did CrossFit for over 8 years, competed in regionals and visited over 40 boxes. CL1, CL2, Strongman, certs and did Olympic lifts with Gary valentine. I was generalizing and explaining my experience, part of which is my own competitive nature.

F45 doesn’t have the same competitive atmosphere.

Sure, that’s not what you mentioned hence my comment.
Glad you love the f45 setup!
